As seen on OpenRice Zahrabel's New Lunch Service I went to Zahrabel over lunch since I heard they recently launched a midday service (they used to only open for dinner). At the beginning of June 2017, the restaurant introduced an Express Lunch Set Menu (HK$140) and an Executive Lunch Set Menu (HK$150-190). Both feature the famous Mezze Sampler … Continue reading REVIEW: Lebanese Lunch at Zahrabel Dining Club Wan Chai

My article starts here The cuisine of the ‘cradle of civilisation’ is very much an underrated affair throughout Asia, … Continue reading The 5 Best Middle Eastern Restaurants in Hong Kong
When the skies opened last Saturday unleashing a torrential downpour that ruined Clockenflap for me, Karen and I decided to recalibrate and comfort ourselves with an indulgent brunch at The Drawing Room (TDR). It also happens to be right across from where I live on Staunton Street, which means we got to avoid getting drenched under the … Continue reading Review: The Drawing Room @ PMQ
I've finally found time to share about my first 3 Michelin Star experience at Bo Innovation, the flagship restaurant of "The Demon Chef" - British born, Canadian raised Alvin Leung. The place wasn't full when we came over for dinner but then again I can't imagine many people - no matter how rich - blowing HK$2,380 casually … Continue reading Review: Three Michelin Starred Bo Innovation
I've got to say I've been trying so many delicious French restaurants lately I'm becoming a convert. I mean, everyone knows French comes hand in hand with good food but all these new places in Hong Kong seem to be taking it to a new level (Kennedy Town people, I'm talking about Bistro du Vin). … Continue reading Saint Germain: Food for the Races
I have no idea why this place is not on the Michelin guide because I honestly think it deserves a Michelin star especially compared to some of the other restaurants I've been trying on the 2015 guide. I mean, this is 100 times better than L'altro (L Place) or Moon Thai (Holiday Inn) but the latter are … Continue reading Review: FINDS, the only Nordic Restaurant in Hong Kong
FINALLY after several attempts to get a table at this uber hyped-up restaurant in Lan Kwai Fong, I was able to score one last week through no small effort. We three were so lucky to have gotten a reservation and so close to Christmas, when everyone is having holiday lunch and dinner parties 24/7. Especially … Continue reading Review: Bread Street Kitchen & Bar by Gordon Ramsay

Short and sweet. Dish, verdict, done. From experience, it's usually a hit or miss here. I tend to drop by Nood regularly because I do yoga are Pure and it's easy... plus I don't know where else to get healthy food on the go in Hong Kong sometimes. Blue Dreams : Watery. Tastes like ice. Shite. So … Continue reading Nood Food Ongoing Review
